Caring For a Cat’s Coat

In general, cats are easy animals to care for. They are very independent and, as long as they are fed and given attention by their owners, they will look after themselves. However, cat owners should take some time to occasionally care for their pet’s coat. A cat’s skin is its largest organ, so it’s important that it’s healthy.

Grooming

Although cats will groom themselves, owners should groom their cats coat from time to time. This is particularly important for long haired breeds. Grooming will reduce the risk of a cat getting fur balls, as well as reducing the amount of hair they shed around the house. It can take a while for cats to get used to being groomed, so owners should praise their animals after a successful grooming. Owners can purchase cat grooming equipment from their local pet shop.

Diet

A healthy diet is essential in order to maintain a cat’s healthy coat. Owners should feed their cats high quality commercial pet food and limit the amount of treats they give them. Cats with sensitive skin, a skin condition or allergy should be fed specialist food as recommended by a vet.

Flea Control

In order to keep their coats healthy, cats should be regularly checked for fleas. If a cat has fleas, they will scratch their skin, causing irritation and sores. Regular treatment with a flea control product should help keep fleas out of a cat’s coat. However, cats with bites or sores should be taken to the vet for treatment.
